Project Description
This advisory project is to provide support to the Region of Guelmim Oued Noun in its Infrastructure Development Program, which aims at upgrading and rehabilitating existing infrastructure and adding new infrastructure in the Region. IFC will support the Region by a comprehensive advisory program through the MENA Cities Initiative.
Development Results
IFC's advisory engagement in the Region of Guelmim Oued Noun is expected to support the Region's Infrastructure Development Program, which aims at reducing social and territorial inequalities and upgrading existing infrastructure across the Region. In particular, the engagement will facilitate the commercial financing of the Region's Projects by addressing identified investment bottlenecks and facilitating project delivery, and building client capacity.
Overall, IFC expects the upgrading of infrastructure in the Region to lead to improved health, economic, and social welfare for the Region’s population. On a market level, the associated commercial financing will further contribute to addressing the financing gap for subnational infrastructure projects in Morocco by complementing scarce public-sector resources.
